In this course we'll explore how Walt Whitman broke with the tyranny of European literary forms to establish a broad, new voice for American poetry. By throwing aside the stolid conventions and clichéd meters of old Europe, Walt Whitman produced a vital, compelling form of verse, one expressive of the nature of his new world and its undiscovered countries, both physical and spiritual, intimate and gloriously public.

Would you consider the audio edition of The Modern Scholar to be better than the print version?
Professor Karbiener is absolutely captivating. Previously, I've been a (very) casual Whitman reader. Dr. Karbiener's enthusiasm and eloquence has made me want to unfold and behold all things Whitman. I've listened to several lectures in the Modern Scholar series and have enjoyed them all. This, in my opinion, is the best of what I've heard so far.
As a side note, Dr. Karbiener's voice is a joy to hear.
